Homeless Persons Memorial Vigil
Saturday, December 21st, 2025

For more than 35 years Denver community members have gathered in front of the steps of the Denver City and County Building on the longest night of the year to attend the “We Will Remember: Homeless Persons' Memorial Vigil.” Hosted by the Colorado Coalition for the Homeless, the candlelight vigil and name-reading ceremony pays tribute to our neighbors who lived on the streets of the Denver metropolitan area and passed away during the previous year. This is the only memorial service honoring the lives of many of these individuals. The public is welcome and invited to attend this event.  

Stay tuned to this page for more information on this year's event, including a planned partnership with the Homeless Remembrance Blanket Project.
